How do I change the Aero glass look?

If I get it right you want the stripes back (screenshot)?

Oh, you want to make your own theme? I thought you were simply looking to apply a custom theme. Unfortunately I don't have the time or patience to make one of my own but the one I use is called Clearscreen Sharp. I got it off of DeviantArt about a year ago.

There are a lot of custom themes out there that you can apply once you patch the appropriate files. Here's a screenshot of my setup:

love your desktop mate. :D

Thanks! It's just the clearscreen sharp theme from DeviantArt and a heavilly customized version of the Omnimo rainmeter theme

Oh, okay, so I get it now. The shine on the windows while on aero peak and the shine on the taskbar are connected. Thanks! :) I've managed to fix it. By the way, Do you know the exact size of the shine on the stream and the size for the taskbar? :D
The shine size is shine 802x604 I posted it up a few posts. Do you want the size of the taskbar or the size of the shine on the taskbar? If it's the size of the shine I do not know, looking at Windows Style Builder it looks like it will be close to 802x151 you may have to play with that size to get it right.
I put a image where that shine is that with Windows style builder to show you what that image does it basically just sets in one spot as you can see I lined up a bunch of Windows and you can see the image in the frame if you move a window that image does not go with the window you will see what's on the left or the right of the image, if I have confused you let me know.

Okay, I understand, I'll just play with it until I get the right size. Thanks for all the help! :D
